Not a good idea. This way you start privoxy needlessly as root.
You didn't change the port privoxy listens on to something lower than
1024, did you?
Doesn't
sudo invoke-rc.d privoxy start
or
sudo /etc/init.d/privoxy start
work?

Privoxy starts automatically for me.
What do
ls -l /etc/rc2.d/*privoxy*
and
ls -l /etc/init.d/*privoxy*
show?

Is /var/log/privoxy owned by the user "privoxy"?
